Hilary's Granola

from The Wholesome Junk Food Cookbook by Laura Trice
Yield: 6 cups

4 cups rolled oats
1 cup raw almonds
1/2 cup pumpkin seeds
1/2 cup raw sunflower seeds (use a variety of nuts/seeds, combining to 2c)
2 tsp sea salt
2/3 cup honey (can substitute maple syrup)
1/2 cup oil (olive, canola, whatever)

Preheat oven to 325. Grease shallow 14 x 11 inch pan. Combine dry ingredients and wet ingredients separately and then mix well. Spoon into prepared pan, firmly patting the mixture to the edges. Bake for 30 minutes, turning the pan and stirring every 10 minutes or until golden brown.

{notes} When I made this, I added a tsp each of vanilla and cinnamon to the honey/oil mixture. I also added 1.5-2 cups of dried fruit (cherries, currants and cranberries) Super yummy!
